Default RE: 2 death 4 wounded in model airplane crash

Hello All,

Some time ago, I read about a suggestion for Failsafe, I think it was from Large Models Association or similar. This suggestion had all control surfaces to go to full deflection and to either idle or kill the engine. THis would kill the speed from the model. Also this would lead to a loss of model in many cases, but I would rather loose my plane than someone to loose his life in this case.

I would like to know if some other suggestions have been around for a good failsafe to kill the speed from the model.

BR,
Jussi
